Lyrics A Long Way from Home - Planet P Project, Tony Carey

A Long Way from Home

In London, Berlin — skinheads are movin' in
They got the songs, the boots and beer
Homegrown bigot every one a patriot
Just like we got 'em over here
When times get rough people ain’t got much
They think you’re trying to take it away
They look for a scapegoat, throw him from the lifeboat
He ain’t like us anyway
And you’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t
No place for you in the middle of the road
You’re walkin' on a knife’s edge runnin' for your life
There ain’t no place for you tonight
You’re a long way from home
You’ve got a long long way left to go
On a hot night a knife fight underneath a street light
Sounds like the same old song
This front, that front nothin' but a witchhunt
Send you back where you belong
And you’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t
No place for you in the middle of the road
You’re walkin' on a knife’s edge runnin' for your life
There ain’t no place for you tonight
You’re a long way from home
You’ve got a long long way left to go
You’re a long way from home
You’ve got a long way to go…
